Details:
The current savegame.c file has some disadvantages. One the one hand there is
no structure, one the other hand loading a damaged savegame will kill the
server. This patch series adds a savegame2.c file to freeciv. This file is a
rewrite of the old savegame file. Comments to additional movements of code or
renaming of variables within the save file are wellcome.
The file attached to this ticket contants all data. Important is the bash
script 'sg-test.bin'. It can be used to test the compability between the old
and new savegames. If you rename a savegame as 'sg-testme.sav.bz2', this file
will
* load 'sg-testme.sav.bz2' and save it in the old format
(sg-test01-old.sav.bz2)
* load 'sg-test01-old.sav.bz2' and save it in the new format
(sg-test02-new.sav.bz2)
* load 'sg-test02-new.sav.bz2' and save it in the old format
(sg-test03-old.sav.bz2)
* load 'sg-test01-old.sav.bz2' and save it in the old format
(sg-test04-old.sav.bz2)
* create diffs between 1-3, 1-4 and 3-4
The main differences are:
* no map for dead players are saved in the new format
* differences within the event log
* (sometimes) differences in the update time for tiles, this can also be
found in the diff 1-4 (only old format)
